One fish, two fish, plaid fish

This past weekend we headed up to my mom's lake cottage to help celebrate her birthday....and to get our little fishy some lake action. Last time we took Hudson in the boat he hated his life jacket...but this time, he wanted to wear it non-stop. Even inside. Little stinker

My husband and I were helping my mom get her kayak in the water and when I turned around, Hudson was in the canoe, serious model face on, and ready to G-O! (p.s...do you think he is wearing enough colors?)
He did great in the canoe with mommy and daddy until, just like last time, he declared it "ALL DONE!" and my husband had to race the boat back to shore.

The rest of the weekend was spent roasting marshmallows, riding bikes, playing in the sand, and most importantly....

...pointing out all the fishies in the lake. Hudson has a new found love for sea lake creatures. He counted them "2, 3, 9"....which, hello, melt my heart.

And I tried not to have a heart attack every time this happened. Which was a lot!
